CHRIS'S WHITE CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• - if necessary, prepare dried beans by soaking them overnight - either a large pot or a deep lipped pan, saute SOME, NOT ALL onions and garlic until soft. Stew whole pieces of chicken (skin on and bone in) in chicken broth with SOME, NOT ALL, diced peppers and spices. Make sure chicken is covered by broth to cook. Cook chicken for 45-60 minutes, then remove chicken from pot, remove skin from chicken and shred chicken off the bone with a fork in each hand. Reserve broth mix for later. - In an empty pot, melt butter, add remaining onions and garlic and saute until tender (15 min). Add flour and stir for ~5 min. Gradually whisk in reserved broth, as well as half + half and remaining broth until desired thickness and texture is reached. Add beans, remaining chilis, shredded chicken and spices and heat together for AT LEAST 30 minutes. Add cilantro before reheating or serving chili, add cheese and sour cream to individual bowls to taste.

CHRIS' WHITE CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Brown chicken breasts using oil in soup pot or large skillet. Shred the chicken and set aside (do not rinse pot or pan). Use same pot or skillet and sauté chopped onion and garlic for 4-5 minutes.
• In large pot, add great northern white beans, chicken broth, Ro*Tel, basil, oregano, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, sautéed onions and garlic, and shredded chicken. Bring to a boil, than turn heat to low and simmer for 2 ½ to 3 hours stirring occasionally.
• A half-hour before serving, stir in sour cream and Monterey Jack cheese (continue to simmer stirring occasionally). Chili will be rather thick, and is great with a spoon (even fork) or as a dip. Serve with tortillas or tortilla chips.
